With business growing , they've always maintained the small business feel . You aren't just a client . They are attentive, punctual and professional with emphasis on maintaining relationships with clients.

I have been with AKIF CPA more than 10 years. They are so amazing, their service are very professional and the staffs are knowledgeable and friendly. Thank you for the wonderful service you providing.

There are many CPAs out there that can do the work BUT very few CPAs who really understand the problems of small businesses and are genuinely willing to put effort and time to make a difference. We are amazed by Akif CPA's professionalism, tax knowledge, communication, and small business know-how.

The entire team has moved mountains to help take the accounting and tax stress off me, so I can focus on doing what I love. They now take care of my payroll, financial statement preparation, tax payments and filings, and offer guidance whenever I need to make decisions in my businesses. They are available via email, phone and Zoom --and really go out of their way to put me at ease.

Efficiency doesn't just seem to be a word, but their way of doing business. In this day and age it is refreshing to find a company that puts the clients first. The staff is only a phone call away and there's never an issue that can't be resolved in that first phone call. Thank you so much for making me feel like such a valued client. I would recommend to anybody that's needing a CPA to give Akif CPA a call. You won't be disappointed.
